Beyond the Highland Mist (Highlander)

400 pages

A sweeping, magic-tinged clash of wills between a fiercely independent modern woman and an impossibly arrogant sixteenth-century laird.

What it feels like

Reading this book feels like stepping into a wonderfully indulgent, mist-shrouded fantasy where modern sensibilities collide with unapologetic sixteenth-century alpha energy. The narrative moves at a brisk, engaging clip, driven by the fiery, often humorous friction between a fiercely guarded heroine and a hero who is entirely too used to getting his way. It is a classic romance experience, steeped in lush, dramatic prose that leans into its tropes with absolute sincerity and charm. The atmosphere is sweeping and intensely romantic, wrapping the reader in a world of ancient castles, fairy meddling, and high-stakes passion. It is the perfect escape for anyone who loves a battle of wills that inevitably melts into an all-consuming, time-defying love story.

About the book

He would sell his warrior soul to possess her...

An alluring laird...

He was known throughout the kingdom as Hawk, legendary predator of the battlefield and the boudoir. No woman could refuse his touch, but no woman ever stirred his heart—until a vengeful fairy tumbled Adrienne de Simone out of modern-day Seattle and into medieval Scotland. Captive in a century not her own, entirely too bold, too outspoken, she was an irresistible challenge to the sixteenth-century rogue. Coerced into a marriage with Hawk, Adrienne vowed to keep him at arm's length—but his sweet seduction played havoc with her resolve.

A prisoner in time...

She had a perfect "no" on her perfect lips for the notorious laird, but Hawk swore she would whisper his name with desire, begging for the passion he longed to ignite within her. Not even the barriers of time and space would keep him from winning her love. Despite her uncertainty about following the promptings of her own passionate heart, Adrienne's reservations were no match for Hawk's determination to keep her by his side...
